  5. Transfer the mixture to a pie dish.
  6. Roll out the puff pastry and place it over the meat mixture.
  7. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  8. Brush the top with the beaten egg and milk mixture.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.
  10. Let cool slightly before serving.
  11. Check that the ground meat reaches 71°C (160°F) throughout before serving.
